Strategies to Assess and Meet Patient Care Needs
Care requirements of the patients on Gudelsky 5 East are determined by clinical assessments and interviews of patients conducted by all disciplines during daily patient rounds and on an individual consult basis.
Each patient admitted to the VSPCU must be covered by a surgical service. Unit-based Advanced Practice Providers are available to assist and execute the plan of care as designated by the primary surgical service.
Patient Care Providers:
Staffing plans are based on assessment of patient acuity, census, and skill mix of the nursing staff. The unit is staffed with a patient ratio of 1 RN to 3-4 patients and 1 PCT to 6 to 10 patients. The charge nurse assesses acuity and unit activity throughout their shift. Changes in staffing requirements are accommodated by the use of personnel from other units, per diem staff, and overtime. The unit-based Nurse Practitioners/Physician Assistants provide care 7 days/week during daytime hours. At night, surgical resident staff provides medical coverage.
Renowned as the academic flagship of the University of Maryland Medical System, our Magnet®-designated facility is a nationally recognized, academic medical center with opportunities across the continuum of care.
